There's prejudice everywhere. I don't think the music industry is as bad as the movie industry. But I have taken a few hits over the years for my sexuality, and for being honest about my life. In the end, it's the music that rules the roost.

As an artist, you put so much into what you do and it can all be torn down in a nanosecond.

I have a three-year-old daughter, which makes me more environmentally conscious. For me, it's about the future.

I will take my coffee black / never snack / hang with the wolves who are sheepish.

I would love to have a number one hit. The truth is if I don't get one, I'll be fine, but at the same time, the truth is that I'm dying for one, as well. But it's worth a shot, I think, while I still have cheekbones.

I have managed to eke out a good and substantial existence. I'm not shoveling gold bricks or anything, but I do very, very well.

Unless I have my aunt or my boyfriend to take care of me, I'm a little pathetic.
